For the cookies

  • 0.5 tsp Baking soda
  • 0.75 cup packed Brown sugar
  • 0.5 cup Dutch processed cocoa powder
  • 1.25 cup Flour
  • 2 tbsp Granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
  • 0.25 tsp Salt
  • 0.5 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2.5 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cup Butter (softened)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and well-combined.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  5. Carefully fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips for that extra chocolatey goodness.
  6. Drop spoonfuls of the dough onto a lined baking sheet, giving them some space to spread.
Baking
  1. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are firm and the centers are slightly soft.
  2. Allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet.
Topping
  1. For the topping, mix together the peanut butter and powdered sugar until smooth. Spread this mixture over the cooled cookies.
  2. Drizzle melted chocolate on top to add a delightful finishing touch. Enjoy!

Notes

Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. Cookies can also be frozen for up to three months. For best texture, ensure butter is softened, not melted. Creative twists can include adding crushed pretzels or swirls of caramel.
